Appendix A
Site Planning Documentation Aids
Overview
This appendix contains aids for installation planning; these include:
• An example of a set of site diagrams that suggest methods of showing:
− Placement of enclosures for controller components relative to process equipment, and placement of
enclosures ("closets") for networking components
− Network diagrams that show methods, routes, components, and configuration details
• A set of templates that are intended to collect and to organize data required for both hardware and
software configuration.
Site Map and Network Diagram
Each Site Map is unique; it shows the specific physical placement of process equipment and process
control equipment in a given facilities environment. Hence, it isn't practical to provide a template in this
manual, and a custom Site Map drawing must be generated for the user's facility.

As a suggestion for content and style of a Site Map, an example is provided in Figure 58. This example is
based on the multiple-controller configuration illustrated in Figure 3 of this manual, and includes the
networking components shown in Figure 59, below in this Appendix.

Each Network Map is unique; it shows the connections and relationships between network components
included in the hierarchy of networks at the user's site. A Network Map should be generated by the IT/MIS
personnel who plan and install the system of networks, and should be updated and maintained to reflect any
changes to the networking system. This is particularly important when more than one networking service
agency is employed.

Configurator Templates
Configurator templates are provided (following Figure 59) for convenience in collecting and organizing
configuration data. These templates include:
configuration data. These templates include:
•
HC900 Controller Configurator
•
I/O Module Configurator
•
I/O Module Channel Assignment Configurator
•
Peer Network Configurator
It is recommended that these configurator sheets be copied and completed for each controller, for each rack
and each I/O module in each controller, and for each peer network to be installed at the user's site. The data
collected on these sheets will be very useful in performing and coordinating installation and software
configuration tasks.
